Abstract

Menarik mencermati perkembangan alat analisis keilmuan kontemporer di mana analisis sejarah dan hermeneutik menemukan dirinya masing-masing saling sinergi, menguatkan kemampuan kerjanya dan membuka perspektif dan lingkup operasionalnya. Dalam konteks kajian al-Qur’an, kedua alat analisis ini, menurut hemat penulis, dapat memberi angin segar baik dalam membuka cakrawala, memberi penafsiran baru maupun menambah ketajaman dan komprehensifitas analisis. Dalam tulisan ini didiskusikan apa implikasi kalau kedua alat analisis tersebut diterapkan dalam kajian al-Qur’an. Dalam menjawab pertanyaan tersebut, penulis menjawabnya dengan refleksi metodologis, artinya obyek kajian didiskusikan dalam ruang dan batas-batas cara kerja alat analisis.

Abstract

The development of knowledge represents the dialectic of social dynamics and knowledge itself, even theology. From there arises various knowledge that later crystallizes into science. One of them is hermeneutics. It is a science that can be simply interpreted as the science of interpretation. This science initially served as a prerequisite for unraveling religious texts that were considered final and sacred. That is why hermeneutics as a science is closely related to the world of theology, specifically the sub-discipline of theology that deals with the methodology and authentication in interpreting the Scriptures in the Christian and Jewish traditions. This paper describes modern hermeneutics from the perspective of understanding, history, and its divisions into methodological, philosophical, and critical hermeneutics.

Abstract

The development of knowledge is a dialectic of social dynamics and knowledge itself, including theology. From there, various forms of knowledge emerged, eventually crystallizing into disciplines. One of them is hermeneutics, a field that can be simply understood as the science of interpretation. Initially, this science served as a prerequisite for deciphering religious texts that were considered final and sacred. That's why hermeneutics as a discipline is closely related to the world of theology, specifically the sub-discipline of theology that deals with methodology and authentication in the interpretation of Scripture in both the Christian and Jewish traditions. This article describes modern hermeneutics from the aspects of understanding, history, and its divisions into methodological, philosophical, and critical hermeneutics.

Abstract

The effort to recontextualize Qur’anic exegesis in Indonesia—or in any other Muslim-populated region—using Western methodological approaches necessitates situating it within the broader development of Western religious studies. Over the past century, Western scholarship on religion has been dominated by historical, comparative, and phenomenological approaches, often influenced by empirical positivism and shaped by the colonial backdrop of Western scholars. This background has led to a research paradigm that positions Western culture as superior to the cultures being studied. Historically, Qur’anic studies in Indonesia have been rooted in the Islamic scholarly tradition of the Middle East, with minimal Western influence until the late 20th century. This can be attributed to Indonesia’s early exposure to Islam and its strong scholarly connections with Middle Eastern institutions. Consequently, Indonesian exegetical traditions have followed textualist approaches similar to those in the Middle East, often focusing on the text itself while overlooking the interpreter and contextual dimensions. The influence of Western scholarship on Indonesian Qur’anic studies remains limited to academic circles, with Indonesian scholars predominantly consuming rather than critically engaging with Western works. Responses to Western methodologies vary: some scholars cautiously integrate Western research, others embrace it as neutral and applicable to Islamic studies, while some advocate for a convergence of Islamic and Western epistemologies. The challenge remains in balancing academic rigor with theological commitments to foster a more dynamic and globally engaged tradition of Qur’anic exegesis in Indonesia.

Abstract

This paper discusses Muhammad Izzat Darwazah (1887-1984)’s hermeneutics of the Qur’an. His thought is considered important because of his persistence in the view that the reconstruction of the initial context of Qur’anic revelation will bring the interpreter closer to the genuine message that Allah and his messenger Muhammad wanted to convey. Using a descriptive-analytic method, the writer portrays Darwazah’s thought position in both the development of tafsir as well as of tafsir nuzuli. In so doing, the writer outlines his discussion as follows introduction, basic structure of hermeneutics, examples of interpretation, status of Darwazah’s hermeneutics, and closing. This study finds that Darwazah’shermeneutic strength lies in the encyclopedic character of his work which provides rich information about the revelation of the Qur’an, the agencies involved, and the identification of early socio-religious processes and practices. Meanwhile, the weakness of his work lies in its entanglement in the hermeneutical burden, or in the expression of Wael Hallaq “Arabicate hermeneutics” which keeps Darwazah preoccupied with linguistic and historical discussion, while forgetting the focus and depth of the fundamental message of the Qur’an. Readers, instead of getting complete enlightenment, they overwhelmingly receive a variety of messages that are scattered, common sense and incomplete
